Game description

You can train your eyes to estimate certain distances. For example, all players receive an x-amount of dominoes. The objective is, to put dominoes back to back until they receive an estimated length of 1.5m. All teams start at the same starting line for fairness reasons. They have to guess how many dominoes they will need to arrive at a length of 1.5m. However, each team has only 30 seconds. After the time is over, the team leader measures each domino chain.

Judging

The team that comes closest to the predetermined length receives a point. Overall winner is the team who receives 5 points first.
